I am not a member of that group, however. The only “resolution” I make every year is to not make a New Year’s resolution, and I’ve been quite successful, every year. It also saves a lot of disappointment. There will be resolutions to lose weight. There will be resolutions to quit smoking. There will be resolutions to quit drinking alcohol. There will be resolutions to love more, hate less, be less judgemental, be more tolerant, think more, etc. Virtually everything is up for grabs. Unfortunately, and despite the best of intentions, most resolutions will be nothing more than a distant memory by month’s end. In fact, it’s estimated that at least 25% of New Year’s resolutions will fall by the wayside just one week into the New Year. Nothing quite like starting off the New Year with a broken promise – to yourself, nonetheless. If you break your New Year’s resolutions, don’t despair. You have a lot of company. A 2013 study out of Scranton University (yes, they really do study stuff like this) finds that only 8% of New Year’s resolutions are actually kept. That means that of the people who make New Year’s resolutions, 92% break them. The practice of making New Year’s resolutions started over 4,000 years ago, with the Babylonians. They celebrated their New Year in March, presumably around Spring. And, it was a festive 11 day celebration. They would make promises to their introspection. That introspection allows us to The problem is, most people set unrealistic and gods, hoping to receive good favor from their gods acknowledge and vow to fix those aspects of our unattainable goals. In their mind, the goal is throughout the upcoming year. lives that we do not view favorably. It allows us to set attainable. But, in reality, it’s no more attainable than personal goals. For many, that introspection is being able to walk to Mars. Experts say that you For most of us – at least those who make New necessary. I, for one, am quite happy with my lot in should set realistic and attainable goals. Setting a Year’s resolutions (again … I’m not one of them) – life. I have “come to terms” with those personal goals goal of losing 100 pounds (or even 50 pounds) may New Year’s resolutions are an opportunity for that haven’t been achieved, and that probably never not be realistic, but setting a goal to lose 10 pounds will be achieved. by March 1 is a more realistic and attainable goal.

A different approach needs to be taken to re-introduce those files, which we will cover later. Before performing a backup, you may want to run a According to Wikipedia, it was somebody named Connie Eble who first got the program such as Bleachbit. It will remove accumulated junk, such as temporary phrase “S**t Happens” into print and, although he never actually said it, Forrest files and caches, reducing the size of the backup. Gump made the phrase famous in the movie that bore his name. Unfortunately though, “it” does happen, so we should be aware of the fact and take suitable precautions.

  • Easy Slackware
    1 Создание легкой системы на базе Slackware I - Введение Slackware пользуется заслуженной популярностью как классический linux дистрибутив, и поговорка "кто знает Red Hat тот знает только Red Hat, кто знает Slackware тот знает linux" несмотря на явный снобизм поклонников "бога Патре­ га" все же имеет под собой основания. Одним из преимуществ Slackware является возможность простого создания на ее основе практически любой системы, в том числе быстрой и легкой десктопной, о чем далее и пойдет речь. Есть дис­ трибутивы, клоны Slackware, созданные именно с этой целью, типа Аbsolute, но все же лучше создавать систему под себя, с максимальным учетом именно своих потребностей, и Slackware пожалуй как никакой другой дистрибутив подходит именно для этой цели. Легкость и быстрота системы определяется выбором WM (DM) , набором программ и оптимизацией программ и системы в целом. Первое исключает KDE, Gnome, даже новые версии XFCЕ, остается разве что LXDE, но набор программ в нем совершенно не устраивает. Оптимизация наиболее часто используемых про­ грамм и нескольких базовых системных пакетов осуществляется их сборкой из сорцов компилятором, оптимизированным именно под Ваш комп, причем каж­ дая программа конфигурируется исходя из Ваших потребностей к ее возможно­ стям. Оптимизация системы в целом осуществляется ее настройкой согласно спе­ цифическим требованиям к десктопу. Такой подход был выбран по банальной причине, возиться с gentoo нет ни­ какого желания, комп все таки создан для того чтобы им пользоваться, а не для компиляции программ, в тоже время у каждого есть минимальный набор из не­ большого количества наиболее часто используемых программ, на которые стоит потратить некоторое, не такое уж большое, время, чтобы довести их до ума. Кро­ ме того, такой подход позволяет иметь самые свежие версии наиболее часто ис­ пользуемых программ.

  • Gestión De Respaldos En Debian
    Gestión de respaldos en Debian Los ordenadores en algún momento fallan o errores humanos causan daños al sistema y los datos. Las operaciones de copia de seguridad y recuperación son una parte esencial de la administración del sistema para que el mismo se recupere después de un fallo y siga funcionando correctamente. Para ello, existen tres puntos clave a tener en cuenta para determina la política del respaldo. 1. Saber qué debemos respaldar. 2. Saber cómo respaldar y recuperar en caso de fallo. 3. Evaluación de riesgos y costos involucrados. Debemos respaldar los siguientes archivos: Archivos de datos directamente creados por el usuario: datos en "~/". Archivos de datos creados por las aplicaciones utilizadas: datos en "/var/", exceptuando "/var/cache/", "/var/run/", y "/var/tmp/". Archivos de configuración del sistema: datos en “/etc/”. Softwares locales: datos en “/usr/local/” o “/opt/”. Información de instalación del sistema: un archivo de texto sin formato con los pasos claves (particiones, etc). Demostración del conjunto de datos: confirmado por las operaciones de recuperación experimentales realizadas con antelación. Al realizar el respaldo, debemos tener en cuenta los siguientes puntos: El almacenamiento seguro de datos: protección sobre los fallos de sistema y la sobreescritura. Realizar copias de seguridad frecuentes: de forma programada. La copia de seguridad debe ser redundante: duplicación de datos (data mirroring). El proceso debe ser fácil: en lo posible que requiera solo un comando para la copia de seguridad. Debemos realizar una evaluación del proceso a utilizar: Valor de los datos en caso de pérdidas. Los recursos necesarios para la copia de seguridad: usuario, hardware y software.

  • B.Com – 6Th Semester Multimedia Unit-5 Multimedia
    RCUB, B.Com – 6th Semester Multimedia RANI CHANNAMMA UNIVERSITY B.Com – 6th Semester Multimedia Unit-5 Multimedia Multimedia: ‘Multi’ – means many and ‘media’ – means medium. We need a suitable medium to exchange our thoughts and express our feelings. The term multimedia refers to combination of more than one such medium for communication and conveying of information. Definition Multimedia means that computer information can be represented through audio, video, and animation in addition to traditional media (i.e., text, graphics drawings, images). Multimedia is content that uses a combination of different content forms such as text, audio, images, animations, video and interactive content. Multimedia contrasts with media that use only rudimentary computer displays such as text-only or traditional forms of printed or hand-produced material. Multimedia can be recorded and played, displayed, interacted with or accessed by information content processing devices, such as computerized and electronic devices, but can also be part of a live performance. Multimedia devices are electronic media devices used to store and experience multimedia content. Multimedia is distinguished from mixed media in fine art; for example, by including audio it has a broader scope. In the early years of multimedia the term "rich media" was synonymous with interactive multimedia, and "hypermedia" was an application of multimedia. Multimedia is the field concerned with the computer-controlled integration of text, graphics, drawings, still and moving images (Video), animation, audio, and any other media where every type of information can be represented, stored, transmitted and processed digitally. Applications of Multimedia: Nowadays the application of multimedia are observed in various fields such as Education, Entertainment, Business and so on.

  • Streaming Networks with VLC
    Streaming networks with VLC Streaming networks with VLC By Jean-Paul Saman, <[email protected]> Introduction The VideoLAN project started at L'Ecole Central des Paris in 1996. Its goal was to develop high quality streaming for the Campus network. In 2001 the project went Open Source providing a complete High Quality Streaming solution available under the GPL. Today the VideoLAN project is know for its adherence to international streaming standards. The multimedia client and server known as VLC is used as test tool, by Universities, R&D departments, Mobile-, Cable modem-, Settopbox- and Streaming Server manufacturers. VLC is also used in commercial products (Freebox, Di.com). A common misconception is that ªVLC media playerº is only a client, but it is also a multimedia streamer. Originally it was only a client, but since it gained multimedia streaming capabilities the difference between client and server functionality has vanished and the name was changed from VideoLAN Client to VLC media player. The naming contributes to the confusion that some new users experience. The VideoLAN project provides a complete streaming solution that is ready to be deployed in an enterprise or home streaming system. It includes a streaming server, client and mini-SAP server for multiple platforms. (C) 2006, Jean-Paul Saman Page 1/17 Streaming networks with VLC Figure 1: VideoLAN network architecture Figure 1 shows that VLC can use different types of hardware as input. To name a few: DVD-, VCD-, SVCD drives, Acquisition-, Encoding cards (PVR 250/350), Satellite dish (DVB-S/C) and Terrestrial TV (DVB-T).
